Don’t Play With Your Food invites you to take a seat at the table and rediscover the joy of food: This group exhibition at Sunny Bank Mills near Leeds, is an invitation to rediscover your own joy of food. I am delighted to have 5 pieces of work in this show, original paintings as well as etchings all with connections to domestic spaces and food.

‘Recently the media portrayal of food has been damning; from breakdowns in global supply chains to more households experiencing food insecurity, the public perception of food is grim. Artists have long used food as a stimulus for their work and to hold a mirror up to society. Creating meaning with the humble cabbage and transforming simple things such as bread and milk into timeless works of art. This exhibition sees a collection of artists, chefs and craftspeople share the gallery to celebrate how playful, gross and delicious food can be.’

This summer, alongside the exhibition, Sunny Bank Mills will host a series of supper clubs, workshops, a summer school and opportunities to break bread with the community. 

The exhibition runs 6 July – 1 September 2024.

Open: Tuesday – Saturday 10-4pm, Sunday 12-4pm. Closed Mondays.
